Cross-local breeding is going to happen, even if the purists would rather it did not. Those who want to keep pure locals can do so, and those who like crosses can have them. Its not mutally exclusive - both are entirely possible and both are currently happening. Get over it. And dont forget that many of the "pure" breeds in captivity do not totally match the original locals; humans have breed those that appeal to them the most (NoseBe being all blue isnt all that common in the wild), not according to what is natural.
Gimlie is a cross of mostly NoseBe with a little Ambilobe.
I have purposefully bred him with a pure Ambilobe, and so far the offspring look great. I also breed pure Nose Be and pure Ambilobe.

This guy looks just like Fierce, Fierce and this guy have that Nosy Be barring. Very good looking male by the way.
These animals are great in their own right, not sure what would drive you guys to cross breed them when they don't do so in nature, let not play mother nature! Keep the locals pure
the last picture is BEAUTIFUL! I never see a panther with so much color
He looks great, Olimpia. It's really interesting how different all of the Ambanja-Faly crosses have ended up looking from each other. I'd have guessed he was a Nosy Be cross for that color and pattern.
I agree I see nosy-be as well.
